Computer Mathematics Using Pascal, 2nd Edition, Stephen J. Sugden, John Simmond

Stephen Sugden

This book introduces elementary programming in Pascal as a tool to solve introductory problems in numerical mathematics at post-compulsory level, i.e. secondary schools, colleges of TAFE, senior colleges, and first-year tertiary. In particular, it covers all the material in the Computer Mathematics (Unit V) course in Queensland high schools. A modern, structured approach to programming has been used throughout the book, and emphasis is placed on problem-solving strategies and algorithm development. Students should eventually appreciate that, in general, the sooner you start coding the solution to a problem, the longer it will take to solve successfully, and that the computer …
